God of War 3's Deleted Scenes

1UP's Matt Leone talks to Sony Santa Monica's Stig Asmussen and Steve Caterson about features cut from the final version of God of War 3, with the first footage of the three-way Kratos/Zeus/Gaia battle originally planned for the game's ending. Edited by Richard Li.

GOW3 coudlve used a underwater puzzle, hell with poseidon's flooding the earth, you would think some swimming woud take place in the game. But in all fairness, they made the game a little less epic to polish it up.

In terms of graphics, gameplay and overall technical aspects, this game was good. Probably the best of the three.

But, when you start to look at the story, which is what I think put this game on the map in the first place, this game just falls sooo friggin flat it's not even funny. I really do think that most of the problem was because you had two previous directors that said 'this is what I want, and I don't want anything less than this'... but Asmusssen was willing to make that compromise in the first place... I honestly think there coulda been SOOO much more added to make that final fight that much more epic. Fighting zues on a crumbling platform, Gaia ocassionally turning it on it's side so you fight sideways, more and more gets broken, fighting on Gaia herself...

What a waste of talent to have such an epic series with such a lackluster ending. I kinda hope that one of the previous directors kinda comes back and does a GoW3.5 or a reboot...

that these parts of the game were left out. it would've actually been fun the three way fight were included in the game. If sony's smart they should allow the release of a directors cut of the game and let the deleted parts be put in.

I wish both those parts had not been cut, especially the 3 way battle. I bet Sony was pushing them to get the fucking game done asap already. Honestly I would have waited no problem the few extra months they needed to get this done. The final battle was good, but it wasn't much better than the final battle in GOW2, it was pretty much the same thing, 1 on 1 with Zeus and nothing that special. In a game the final battle should be all of the epicness seen so far and multiplied, but the final battle for GOW3 was not as good as earlier battles, im sure due to time constraint.

I seriously hope they release dlc with the final battle and maybe a few other things they cut out and add some extra new stuff too of course. If not, then ill take a directors cut of the game like the person below said.
